[0040] In one embodiment, a motion sensor is provided on the controlled device, which can detect the motion state of the controlled device and generate two second sensing signals. The two second sensing signals are both pulse signals, and the pulse signals can characterize the motion state of the controlled device through their frequencies, such as speed, acceleration and other information. In other embodiments, other forms and quantities of second sensing signals can also be used to monitor the motion state of the controlled device according to actual needs.
[0041] In one embodiment, the relay module 40 is directly connected to the controlled device to output the fourth control signal to the controlled device to achieve its control. In other embodiments, the relay module 40 can also be connected to a main control device (such as a host computer) or other device of the controlled device, and the fourth control signal is output to the device, and then the device controls the controlled device based on the fourth control signal.
[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, the power module 90 includes a voltage stabilizing chip U1, a voltage stabilizing chip U2 and peripheral circuits thereof. The voltage stabilizing chip U1 is preferably XL1509, and the voltage stabilizing chip U1 is used to convert a 24V power supply voltage into a 5V working voltage.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, the sensor 10 includes a sensor chip U6 and its peripheral circuits. The model of the sensor chip U6 is preferably MPU6050. The sensor chip U6 can monitor its own motion state through a built-in gyroscope. In one embodiment, the sensor chip U6 monitors its own three-axis angular acceleration ω x ,ω y and ω z The 3-axis angular acceleration ω is output through its own pins 23 and 24 x ,ω y and ω z The first sensor signal.
[0044] like Figure 4As shown, the input module 60 includes a plurality of key switches. In one embodiment, four key switches are provided, one end of each key switch is connected to the ground voltage, and the other end generates a configuration signal. A capacitor can also be connected in parallel at both ends of the key switch to improve the stability of the configuration signal. By generating different configuration signals through the key switches, the functions, parameters, control logic, etc. of the control module 20 can be configured.
[0045] like Figure 5 As shown, the control module 20 includes a control chip and its peripheral circuits. The model of the control chip U4 is preferably CH32F203RCT6.
[0046] Pins 61 and 62 of the control chip U4 are connected to pins 23 and 24 of the sensor chip U6 to receive a first sensor signal, respectively. Pins 14 and 15 of the control chip U4 are connected to the controlled device to receive a second sensor signal, respectively.
[0047] The control chip U4 can solve the first sensor signal and the second sensor signal to obtain the motion state data represented by the signal.
[0048] Pins 24, 25, 26 and 27 of the control chip U4 are respectively connected to four key switches to receive four configuration signals.
[0049] The control chip U4 can be configured based on the configuration signal, such as configuring its control logic, parameters, etc. The control chip U4 can also be configured by program writing or the like.
[0050] Pins 51, 52 and 53 of the control chip U4 are connected to the communication module 70 to communicate with external devices through the communication module 70. Pins 17, 20 and 28-30 of the control chip U4 are connected to the display module 50 to control the display module 50 to display.
[0051] Pins 39, 40 and 41 of the control chip U4 are connected to the output module 30 to output the first control signal and the second control signal. Pins 61 and 62 of the control chip U4 are also connected to the output module 30 to output the first control signal and the second control signal.
[0052] In one embodiment, after the control chip U4 calculates the motion state information represented by the first sensor signal, it outputs the first control signal PM1 in pulse form through its own pin 39. The first control signal PM1 can represent the motion state information calculated based on its own frequency.
[0053] Similarly, after the control chip U4 calculates the motion state information represented by the two second sensor signals, it outputs a pulse-form second control signal PM2 and a pulse-form second control signal PM3 through its own pins 40 and 41 respectively. The second control signal PM2 can be a motion state information calculated based on its own frequency representation, and the second control signal PM3 can be another motion state information calculated based on its own frequency representation.
[0054] In other embodiments, the form and quantity of the first control signal and the second control signal output by the control chip U4 may also be changed according to actual needs.
[0055] In one embodiment, the sensor chip U6, the control chip U4 and the output module 30 can communicate based on the I2C protocol, and output or receive the first control signal, the second control signal and the first sensor signal through the pins 61 and 62 of the control chip U4 based on the I2C protocol. At this time, the first control signal and the second control signal are both I2C protocol standard signals, the first control signal includes the motion state information represented by the first sensor signal, and the second control signal includes the motion state information represented by the second sensor signal.
[0056] Pin 37 , pin 38 , and pin 44 of the control chip U4 are connected to the relay module 40 to generate a third control signal respectively.
[0057] In one embodiment, the three third control signals can represent different control contents respectively, and the subsequent relay module 40 can also generate a corresponding fourth control signal based on each third control signal, thereby realizing three different controls on the controlled device. Of course, it can be understood that any of the three third control signals can also represent the same control content, and can be freely set according to actual conditions.
[0058] The three third control signals can be generated by the control chip U4 through a preset control logic, all based on the first sensor signal, or all based on the second sensor signal, or partly based on the first sensor signal and partly based on the second sensor signal. The control logic for generating the third control signals can be modified by programming and configuring the control chip U4.
[0059] For example, the control chip U4 obtains the speed information of the controlled device based on the second sensor signal, and determines whether the speed exceeds the threshold. If the speed exceeds the threshold, a specific third control signal is generated to control the relay module 40 to generate a corresponding fourth control signal, and then the controlled device is controlled to stop running. If the speed does not exceed the threshold, an opposite third control signal is generated to keep the controlled device running, and so on. Those skilled in the art can simply complete the writing and configuration of the control logic as needed, and no further elaboration is given here.
[0060] In other embodiments, other numbers of third control signals may also be generated.
[0061] like Figure 6 As shown, the relay module 40 includes a driver chip U7 and a relay assembly. The model of the driver chip U7 is preferably ULN2001DS. Pins 1, 2, and 3 of the driver chip U7 are respectively connected to pins 37, 38, and 44 of the control chip U4 and receive a corresponding third control signal. The driver chip U7 is used to generate three drive signals based on the three third control signals and output them through its own pins 6, 7, and 8.
[0062] In one embodiment, three relay assemblies are provided. The relay assembly includes a relay chip K1 and its peripheral circuit. Pins 8 of the three relay chips K1 are respectively connected to pins 6, 7, and 8 of the driver chip U7 to receive corresponding drive signals, and the relay chip K1 outputs a fourth control signal through its own pin 6 based on the drive signal. Based on the foregoing, pins 6 of the three relay chips K1 can all be directly connected to the controlled device to output the fourth control signal, and can also be connected to the main control device to further control the controlled device through the main control device.
[0063] like Figure 7 As shown, the output module 30 includes a first pulse output unit, a second pulse output unit, a first digital-to-analog conversion unit, and a second digital-to-analog conversion unit.
[0064] The first pulse output unit is connected to the control chip U4 to output a first output signal representing the motion state of the sensor 10 based on the first control signal. The second pulse output unit is connected to the control chip U4 to output a second output signal representing the motion state of the controlled device based on the second control signal.
[0065] The first digital-to-analog conversion unit is connected to the control chip U4 to output a first output signal representing the motion state of the sensor 10 based on the first control signal. The second digital-to-analog conversion unit is connected to the control chip U4 to output a second output signal representing the motion state of the controlled device based on the second control signal.
[0066] In one embodiment, the pin 39 of the control chip U4 is used to output a first control signal PM1 in a pulse form, and the first control signal PM1 can represent the comprehensive angular velocity value ω of the sensor 10 itself through the pulse frequency. The comprehensive angular velocity value ω can be calculated by the control chip U4 through the following formula:
[0067]
[0068] Pins 40 and 41 of the control chip U4 are used to output the second control signal PM2 and the second control signal PM3 in pulse form. The second control signal PM2 and the second control signal PM3 can respectively represent the speed, acceleration or other information of the controlled device through the pulse frequency.
[0069] In one embodiment, the first pulse output unit includes a photoelectric conversion chip U9 and its peripheral circuits, and the model of the photoelectric conversion chip U9 is preferably CTS701. Pin 1 of the photoelectric conversion chip U9 is connected to pin 39 of the control chip U4 through a resistor to receive the first control signal PM1, and the photoelectric conversion chip U9 outputs the first output signal PWM1 through its own pin 5.
[0070] In one embodiment, two second pulse output units are provided, including a photoelectric conversion chip U10 and its peripheral circuits, a photoelectric conversion chip U11 and its peripheral circuits, and the models of the photoelectric conversion chip U10 and the photoelectric conversion chip U11 are preferably CTS701. Pin 1 of the photoelectric conversion chip U10 is connected to pin 40 of the control chip U4 through a resistor to receive the second control signal PM2, and the photoelectric conversion chip U10 outputs the second output signal PWM2 through its own pin 5. Pin 1 of the photoelectric conversion chip U11 is connected to pin 41 of the control chip U4 through a resistor to receive the second control signal PM3, and the photoelectric conversion chip U11 outputs the second output signal PWM3 through its own pin 5.
[0071] In other embodiments, the control chip U4 may also generate other numbers and characterizing meanings of first control signals and second control signals, such as generating three first control signals and respectively characterizing the values of the three-axis angular acceleration of the sensor chip U6 itself, generating a second control signal and characterizing the speed of the controlled device, and so on. It is also understandable that the number of first pulse output units and the number of second pulse output units may also be changed according to the number of signals that need to be output. The specific meaning represented by the first output signal generated by the first pulse output unit and the second output signal generated by the second pulse output unit may also change with the specific meaning represented by the first control signal and the second control signal received. By configuring and modifying the control chip U4, the specific meaning of the output signal can be conveniently and flexibly set, which greatly enriches the usage scenarios.
[0072] like Figure 7 As shown, the first digital-to-analog conversion unit includes a digital-to-analog conversion chip U8 and its peripheral circuits, and the second digital-to-analog conversion unit includes a digital-to-analog conversion chip U13 and its peripheral circuits. The models of the digital-to-analog conversion chip U8 and the digital-to-analog conversion chip U13 are preferably GP8303.
[0073] Among them, the pins 1 and 2 of the digital-to-analog conversion chip U8, and the pins 1 and 2 of the digital-to-analog conversion chip U8 are respectively connected to the pins 61 and 62 of the control chip U4, so as to respectively receive the first control signal and the second control signal sent by the control chip U4 based on the I2C protocol. The digital-to-analog conversion chip U8 generates a first output signal based on the first control signal and outputs it through its own pin 8, and the digital-to-analog conversion chip U13 generates a second output signal based on the second control signal and outputs it through its own pin 8. Both the first output signal and the second output signal are in the form of current.
[0074] In one embodiment, the peripheral circuits of the digital-to-analog conversion chip U8 and the digital-to-analog conversion chip U13 include a transistor chip U12 whose model is AO4805 and integrates two PMOS transistors, and the gates of the two PMOS transistors are both connected to the bias voltage.
[0075] Pin 1 of the transistor chip U12 (the source of a PMOS tube) is connected to pin 8 of the digital-to-analog conversion chip U8 to receive the first output signal, and pin 8 of the transistor chip U12 (the drain of the PMOS tube) is used to output the first output signal. Pin 4 of the transistor chip U12 (the source of another PMOS tube) is connected to pin 8 of the digital-to-analog conversion chip U13 to receive the second output signal, and pin 5 of the transistor chip U12 (the drain of the PMOS tube) is used to output the second output signal.
[0076] In other embodiments, the first pulse output unit or the second pulse output unit may not be provided, and the first digital-to-analog conversion unit or the second digital-to-analog conversion unit may not be provided.
[0077] like Figure 8 As shown, the display module 50 includes an LED module and a display screen. The LED module is connected to pins 28 to 30 of the control chip U4 to perform light display based on the control of the control chip U4. The display screen is connected to pins 17 and 20 of the control chip U4 through a connector J2 to perform liquid crystal display based on the control of the control chip U4.
[0078] like Fig. 9 As shown, the communication module 70 includes a power chip U3 and a communication chip U5.
[0079] The power chip U3 is preferably of the type B0505S, and the power chip U3 is used to provide isolated power for the communication chip U5. The communication chip U5 is preferably of the type ADM2483, which is a differential bus transceiver that supports the RS485 protocol. Pins 3, 4, and 6 of the communication chip U5 are connected to pins 51, 52, and 53 of the control chip U4, and pins 12 and 13 of the communication chip U5 are connected to an external device. In one embodiment, the external device may be a master device or other device of the controlled device.
[0080] like Fig.10 As shown, this embodiment also discloses a control method, including: generating a first sensor signal representing the motion state of the sensor 10. Receiving the first sensor signal and the second sensor signal representing the motion state of the controlled device through the control module 20, and generating a first control signal based on the first sensor signal, generating a second control signal based on the second sensor signal, and generating a third control signal based on the first sensor signal or the second sensor signal. Outputting a first output signal representing the motion state of the sensor 10 based on the first control signal and outputting a second output signal representing the motion state of the controlled device based on the second control signal through the output module 30. Outputting a fourth control signal for controlling the controlled device based on the third control signal through the relay module 40.
[0081] In one embodiment, the control method further includes fixing the monitor and the controlled device and causing the monitor to move along with the controlled device.
[0082] When the monitor is installed on the controlled device, the monitor can obtain the motion state information of the controlled device based on the second sensor signal emitted by the motion sensor on the controlled device, and generate a fourth control signal to the controlled device based on the preset control logic to control the controlled device. It can also obtain the motion state information of itself, that is, the controlled device, based on the first sensor signal generated by the sensor 10, and generate a fourth control signal to the controlled device based on the preset control logic to control the controlled device.
[0083] This is different from the prior art, in which only the sensor signal generated by the motion sensor of the controlled device is monitored by a monitor, and a control signal is sent to the main control device based on the sensor signal, and then the main control device sends instructions to control the controlled device. When any link between the motion sensor on the controlled device, the main control device and the controlled device is disconnected, it will cause loss of control and the controlled device will not be able to achieve autonomous control.
[0084] The monitor in this solution can move with the controlled device. When the motion sensor of the controlled device is disconnected, it can also obtain the status data of the controlled device through its own sensing. It can also directly control the controlled device by connecting the relay to the controlled device. Even if the motion sensor or active and passive devices are disconnected, it can provide active monitoring for the controlled device, improve the protection effect, and achieve more comprehensive and diversified monitoring and protection.
[0085] In other embodiments, the monitor and the controlled device may not be fixedly installed, that is, the monitoring method in the prior art may also be implemented through the monitor of this solution.
[0086] In one embodiment, generating the third control signal based on the first sensor signal or the second sensor signal by the control module 20 includes: determining whether the controlled device is overspeeding based on the first sensor signal or the second sensor signal by the control module 20, and generating a corresponding third control signal.
[0087] Since the monitor can move with the controlled device, the first sensor signal and the second sensor signal can both represent the motion state of the controlled device, and the control module 20 can freely choose to judge and control based on the motion state data in the first sensor signal or the second sensor signal based on the preset logic and algorithm. The third control signal controls the on and off of the relay and then generates a fourth control signal. The fourth control signal can be used to control specific components in the controlled device, such as the motor power supply contactor, so that the overspeed power-off protection function can be realized through the monitor.
[0088] In other embodiments, the control module 20 may also generate a third control signal based on other preset logics, and thereby control the controlled device, and the fourth control signal may also be used to control other components of the controlled device. It is understandable that the control module 20 may be configured with logic and parameters by inputting configuration signals in cooperation with the input module 60 and the display screen, or by exchanging information with the control module 20 through the communication module 70, so that the monitor has a very rich usage scenario.
[0089] At the same time, the monitor in this solution also has multiple data output methods. It can output the first sensor signal and the second sensor signal in the form of pulse signals and analog signals, and can also directly interact with external devices through the communication module 70, which is convenient for staff to flexibly obtain and monitor data during actual use. By setting up the storage module 80, parameters and data can also be easily saved.
[0090] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be considered as limiting the claim to which it relates.
[0091] In addition, it should be understood that although the present specification is described according to implementation modes, not every implementation mode contains only one independent technical solution. This description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment may also be appropriately combined to form other implementation modes that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
